never were mostly trying to use their skill at attacking on the flanks. Grilled's
Qassem Madaini tried to break through in the middle repeatedly, but couldn't get past the visitors' defenders. After 13 minutes, never's
Xinés Siñeriz made his way through the middle and nonchalantly placed the ball out of the keeper's reach, putting the visitors up 0 - 1. With the crowd on their feet chanting wildly, some great moves down the right hand side after 16 minutes gave Grilled a wonderful opportunity to level the score, and
Mohd Safri bin Mohd Kassim stepped up to the challenge. 1 - 1 Some great play up the middle by Grilled led to a chance for
Shiya Shaahee to score after 18 minutes, but the shot hit the crossbar. 1 - 2 was the score with 30 minutes played, after
Michelangelo Petter cut through the central defence and chipped home a goal for never. Grilled tried to even things up by sending a long ball towards the centrally placed strikers, but the visitors' defence got the best of this rather direct style of play. 1 - 2 was the halftime score. Possession in the forty-five minutes was dominated by Grilled, with 58 percent of the ball.
The home crowd was not impressed when
Liu Yeng Shun came in from the right, shooting hard to score after 54 minutes. never were now up 1 - 3. Grilled reduced the lead to 2 - 3 with 65 minutes on the clock when
Chow Ying Lee got the best of a ball floated in from the left. After 83 minutes, an incisive pass through the middle gave
Max Radenne a chance to increase the lead for never, and he did not disappoint. The score was then 2 - 4. Grilled's
凌 (Ling) 福泉 (Fuquan) was shown a yellow card after 84 minutes for slicing down an opponent. With the scoreboard clock showing 85 minutes, the inexperienced never team fell into disarray. After 86 minutes
Mohd Safri bin Mohd Kassim could have reduced the lead with a blistering strike from the left wing, had it not been for an excellent block by the visitors' keeper. The home crowd were delighted when
Seytek Djekshenkulov scored with a header after an attack from the right, making the score 3 to 4. But did he use his hand? That'll be one for the pundits to talk about after the game, that's for sure! Grilled had most of the ball, with 61 percent of possession.
The most dominating Grilled player was without a doubt
Mohd Safri bin Mohd Kassim.
朱 (Zhu) 长春 (Changchun) on the other hand, had a terrible day. never's best player was
Max Radenne. On the other hand,
李 (Li) 茨英 (Ciying)'s play was disheartening. The match ends 3 - 4.
